I lived in Independence about 30 years ago. It is a very beautiful city. I have
returned 3 times to visit. I think Independece can be a gold mine for LDS
tourists. When I have retured, I find that Independence has been seeking
the "Truman" tourist.(Most of them are dead, WWII) Almost all of your
tourist today are in Min-vans with Utah plates. Once we have seen the LDS sites
and visitors center and the Community of Christ buildings, off we go because
there is no where to spend good "Mormon money." Develop your gold mine.
If I was younger and richer...........
